Häkel Familienportrait von Lady Rabbit und Mister Deer

Ooopps! Beim Durchschauen meiner Fotos ist mir aufgefallen, dass ich meine letzten Häkelarbeiten ganz vergessen habe zu posten! Deshalb nachträglich jetzt noch ein paar Fotos von Lady Rabbit und Mister Deer! Ich wollte gerne so eine Art Familienporträt gerahmt machen, das war die ursprüngliche Idee. Und dann kam noch das Hintergrunddoily, die Borte, etwas Lace, ne Blume und die Anziehsachen dazu, bis alles fertig war. Hast du auch gesehen, dass die Dame eine freche Schleifenhandtasche besitzt? Und der Mann scheint als Schaffner beim japanischen Shinkansen zu arbeiten, zumindest trägt er sein Abzeichen auf dem Strickpulli!

Jam Season Part One – Strawberries

The jam/marmelade season has started. At least for me. So I started with strawberries. Apart form making a yummy jam, I set myself the target to make every single glass different with lot´s of cute hangtags, stamped labels and tiny little crochet things that put a smile on your face for breakfast.

Crochet Totoro

My hubby loves „My Neighbor Totoro“, so when his sister asked me for birthday gift recommendations, I said „Why don´t you try to make him a crochet Totoro“. I am not very good (and not patient) at crafty things that are „accurate“, so this was the perfect challenge for her. What she came back with is simply amazing. Of course the hubby already asked and wants the little white „Chibi Totoro“ for Xmas. I am not mentioning the ginger cat here, messing around with the pictures.

Crochet Breakfast

For a yummy and healthy sunday breakfast, I recommend a decent amount of peanut butter and sunny side up egg on toast. In order to avoid too many calories, everything is done crochet style. But why am I doing this ? I just came back from a vacation in Japan and „crochet food“ is on a total different level there. I even bought a book about it. Of course, I can not read anything but the pictures are super cute and crochet patterns are ‚international‘. So there will be more crochet food coming your way.

Planning a Yarn Party

I am always impressed with all the crochet things seeing on Pinterest. I need to work on my crochet skills and was looking for something really easy to start with.

First thing were the granny square coasters with 2 colours. Couldn’t be too difficult, can they? As they turned out so nice, I was highly motivated and added some pompoms, during watching TV (you can always use pompoms for everything, right?).

For the Apple potholder, I started as I would do a regular flower…with the magic loop and double crochets. Just added round after round until had appr. 18 cm. The green leaf, the apple core and the stem I added at the end. I think the last time I did some potholders, must have been 30 years ago. I am so proud about my work!

The crochet edge for the postcards given me some headache, but after watching a tutorial, it turned out not too complicated for me after all. And now I can hang them on a wall, if i like!

So I decorated the table for some nice pictures, showing you the results of my crochet weekend. I also added some things that my hubby’s sister gave me. She’s a pro. Maybe these pictures will inspire you to start crafting a little bit as well. Let’s crochet!
